Question

What is meant by polar and non-polar compounds ?

Answer 1

The greater the electronegativity difference, the more ionic the bond is. Bonds that are partly ionic are called polar covalent bonds. Nonpolar covalent bonds, with equal sharing of the bond electrons, arise when the electronegativities of the two atoms are equal.

Answer 2

Answer:

Polar compounds have negative charge at one end and positive charge at another end such as in water whereas in non polar compounds no specific charge is present or no dipole moment such as in methane and benzene.
